Beautify.
So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, & demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long & its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people & grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food & for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one & no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools & robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep & pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song & die like a hero going home.

Dendrology.
On a weekend excursion to Austin, I was inspired by the lush fields of trees along the Interstate. Later that night, I doodled these ladies. They will be offered as a print set in my shop, as they’ve grown very attached to one another.
Next on my agenda: a geisha adorned with bonsai; a mermaid eating cotton candy; fashion week meets zombie infestation; more bunnies for a certain someone; a MALE character? Hrmm.
I promise not to try and not neglect you so much dear blog.
